BMW officially unveiled the ALPINA B6 xDrive Gran Coupe at the New York Auto Show. As you know, ALPINA offers comprehensive performance and styling tweaks for BMW models, this one being no exception.

We start at the exterior where the company offers LED Adaptive Headlights with High Beam Assistant as standard, new alloy wheels, revised front and rear spoilers and a tweaked grille.

You will also notice the blue brake calipers that match the exterior finish as well as the more sculpted hood. Get into the performance specs and you will get more excited as this model packs a tweaked 4.4-liter V8 producing 600 horsepower and 590 lb-ft (799 Nm) of torque.
